Thank you for the video. Odd results. Make sure there's nothing to shield the antenna like a metal roof or metal elements nearby. In a very remote area with the smaller brother TP-Link MR400 v3 and a similar antenna i managed to improve my connection speed three times, from a maximum of 1 mb/s to 3 mb/s with a much more stable connection.I also noticed the wi-fi coverage was better with this type of external antenna. Cheers!
The point of having an extended antenne is for outdoor use. Outside the metal roof on top of house on wall or roof of caravan, other side of brick wall. A tower needs to be in line of sight. The outside antenne needs to be water proof because your router is not.
Nice vid! I just picked up the TP-Link MR-100. I can already feel myself sliding down the rabbit hole.

So my guess are line of sight problems. Now looking into rigging up an external antenna to try improve reception of the B3 band. Thanks for giving me an idea for what kind of equipment I'll be requiring!
have the same router and the same issue. had befor a small pocket router and at a special spot outside I had like 3-4 mbps. thought a 4g router with antennas would perform better. it hurts when you pay (in greece) 65€/month for unlimited data and at home your speed sucks... so thank you for letting us know that if there is no signal you have to accept it.

It doesn't matter whether it is the rabbit ears or the separate antenna with two long cables.

I live in the countryside where the internet proposed by the suppliers is 4-8Mbps, but I made a home network from a cheap D-Link router (max.150Mbps) and a Huawei E3372 modem glued to the window in the room with double-sided tape, where the transfer reaches 60Mbps and PowerLine transfers the signal to the other part of the house to the second router.
@@sbcode My entire setup cost only PLN 200, which is about £ 37. No antennas except those built into the E3372 modem. But it required meandering around the house looking for a better transmitter range :)
You can sends SMS using the UI. You could send voice if you new how to wire a mic and speaker to the onboard chip and send it control commands using serial. You’d succeed faster using a 4g sim module on a raspberry pi or arduino. Good luck. Ive never done it and i don’t know how
Sir I live in a remote area.. we cannot get any signal using mobile on our village.. but some place we get little signal from jiofi therefor we can online.. You think this tp link with antenna is better than jiofi in our area..and can we have signal in our installation place ??
I don't know JioFi. This antenna in the video is not better than the supplied tplink mr600 antennas for my situation. If you have line of site to any 4g towers, you cay try a directional antenna such as amzn.to/3hljJYS If cost isn't a barrier, then try Elons starlink.
Yeah that antenna is a pile of rubbish.. I tested it a lot. Partly its made poorly, partly because such poor quality cable. Also, that table is standard online guide which is not realistic in practise btw... you get much better performance from the 'bad' snr. Ignore that table
Non sense fellow place that omni directional antenna in the roof so that it can catch the signal. If you keep it beside u how will it catch the signal? Atleast research in TH-cam 😁😄😆

Why you dont install the Antenna on the Roof of your House? If you installed this like you, it is absolutley useless. The antenna must have a clear view of the nearest LTE mast. And why are you talking badly about the product if you haven't tested it properly? By that I don't mean like you but on the roof.
Wow, eveybody's an expert. Correct, its better to have a line of sight view to the LTE antenna. I said this in the video. And you can get a directional antenna in that case. Did I also say that in the video? Anyway, the product is still no good. Your tiny little internal antenna in your mobile phone inside the bottom floor of your own house, gets a better signal than this huge peice of shite eye sore. I came up with a better solution. th-cam.com/video/fg8R0WaRiDc/w-d-xo.html. Don't lose any sleep.
@sbcode I am sorry. That wasn't meant to be an attack on you personally or your expertise. I probably didn't quite understand it due to my somewhat poor English. You're right about the smartphone, the connection is much better. The video you linked to or the antenna you are presenting costs about "12€" on eBay. Your results look very stable, so I will probably buy this one. You bought 2 separate antennas I assume? Unfortunately, my problem is that the nearest LTE mast is nearby, but is obscured by many houses and trees. There is also a quazi "road elevation" between the mast and our house.
If it doesn’t cost much then you can try it. I think you will be disappointed though. The YAGI is good because you can point each antenna’s in a different direction if you want to experiment. I just joined them together since i didn’t know any better at the time.
you shoud re-watch the video at @1:05 Good luck buying this antenna and making it work for you. A YAGI antenna is much better. th-cam.com/video/fg8R0WaRiDc/w-d-xo.html
I find it difficult to take technical advice frome someone who talks about rabbit ears. The thing is useless. Tell me where I can find d a good system.

I live in the countryside where the internet proposed by the suppliers is 4-8Mbps, but I made a home network from a cheap D-Link router (max.150Mbps) and a Huawei E3372 modem glued to the window in the room with double-sided tape, where the transfer reaches 60Mbps and PowerLine transfers the signal to the other part of the house to the second router.
too complicated. I do this now th-cam.com/video/fg8R0WaRiDc/w-d-xo.html
@@sbcode My entire setup cost only PLN 200, which is about £ 37. No antennas except those built into the E3372 modem. But it required meandering around the house looking for a better transmitter range :)
@@sew237 do you have more info (video/blog/website) on your setup?
What d link
How to use MR600 to make 4glte phone call？？
You can sends SMS using the UI. You could send voice if you new how to wire a mic and speaker to the onboard chip and send it control commands using serial. You’d succeed faster using a 4g sim module on a raspberry pi or arduino. Good luck. Ive never done it and i don’t know how
i felt so sad for you watching this
We don't need your pity! We can hold our own just f... *internet connection lost*
dont put the router or the antenas near metal objects,,,the sinal gets bad.
Sir I live in a remote area.. we cannot get any signal using mobile on our village.. but some place we get little signal from jiofi therefor we can online..
You think this tp link with antenna is better than jiofi in our area..and can we have signal in our installation place ??
I don't know JioFi. This antenna in the video is not better than the supplied tplink mr600 antennas for my situation. If you have line of site to any 4g towers, you cay try a directional antenna such as amzn.to/3hljJYS
If cost isn't a barrier, then try Elons starlink.
Entenna TV tnt good for 4g routeur

Yeah that antenna is a pile of rubbish.. I tested it a lot. Partly its made poorly, partly because such poor quality cable. Also, that table is standard online guide which is not realistic in practise btw... you get much better performance from the 'bad' snr. Ignore that table
fake antenna or on the sticker "abtenna"
Non sense fellow place that omni directional antenna in the roof so that it can catch the signal. If you keep it beside u how will it catch the signal? Atleast research in TH-cam 😁😄😆
please go back and watch the video at times @1:05 and @2:25
But please, don't let me stop you from buying this antenna if you really want to. amzn.to/3e0ugGX
I have another video you may want to criticise. th-cam.com/video/fg8R0WaRiDc/w-d-xo.html
@@sbcode So instead of listening about you being wrong (it is clearly an outdoor antenna for LTE) you spam links so you make money?
Why you dont install the Antenna on the Roof of your House? If you installed this like you, it is absolutley useless. The antenna must have a clear view of the nearest LTE mast.
And why are you talking badly about the product if you haven't tested it properly? By that I don't mean like you but on the roof.
Wow, eveybody's an expert.
Correct, its better to have a line of sight view to the LTE antenna. I said this in the video. And you can get a directional antenna in that case. Did I also say that in the video?
Anyway, the product is still no good. Your tiny little internal antenna in your mobile phone inside the bottom floor of your own house, gets a better signal than this huge peice of shite eye sore.
I came up with a better solution. th-cam.com/video/fg8R0WaRiDc/w-d-xo.html.
Don't lose any sleep.
@sbcode I am sorry. That wasn't meant to be an attack on you personally or your expertise. I probably didn't quite understand it due to my somewhat poor English. You're right about the smartphone, the connection is much better. The video you linked to or the antenna you are presenting costs about "12€" on eBay. Your results look very stable, so I will probably buy this one. You bought 2 separate antennas I assume? Unfortunately, my problem is that the nearest LTE mast is nearby, but is obscured by many houses and trees. There is also a quazi "road elevation" between the mast and our house.
If it doesn’t cost much then you can try it. I think you will be disappointed though. The YAGI is good because you can point each antenna’s in a different direction if you want to experiment. I just joined them together since i didn’t know any better at the time.
@@sbcode Are you still using this method or was it intended for testing? And would you do the same constellation today (YAGI)? Regards
I use fibre optic now. Mobile networks in my area became congested in the afternoons.
Useless video, this is an OUTSIDE antenna
you shoud re-watch the video at @1:05
Good luck buying this antenna and making it work for you.
A YAGI antenna is much better. th-cam.com/video/fg8R0WaRiDc/w-d-xo.html
I find it difficult to take technical advice frome someone who talks about rabbit ears. The thing is useless. Tell me where I can find d a good system.

Just bought a qoltec 57041 4g mimo and i got the same result as you , waste of money
Its quite amazing that we can still get better performance just using our phones as a personal hotspot
